HEATER ATTACHMENT FOR STOVES.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters'latent No. 269,047, datedDeceinber 12, 1882. Application filed July 29, 1882. (No model.)

, To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that l, NANCY J. GRAHAM, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Jarkson, in the county of Jackson and State of Ohio, have invented a new and valuable Improvement in Heater Attachments for Stoves; and I do hereby declai'ethat the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the cottstruction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, makinga part. of this specification, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.

Figure 1 of the drawings is a representation of this invention in a perspective view. Fig. 2 is a vertical section, showing the bake-oven with the bake-pan inside. Figs.3, 4, 5, 6, and Tare details in perspective.

The object of my invention is to conduct a portion of the heat from a stove located in an apartment on one floor ofa building up to an apattment on the floor above, and to utilize the heat tints conducted to the upper apartntent for baking or other culinary purposes. To such end 1 conduct from the stove up through the floor above a hot-air pipe, and at the upper terminus of said pipe I arrange a small oven, in which a bake-pan can be placed, the ascending heat circulating around the pan and'then passing out into the room.

Referring to the drawings, let A indicate an apartment on th tirst floor, B, and Can apartment on the second floor, I), of a dwelling.

E indicates an ordiuaryopen-front stove, located on the first door, for heating the room, as usual. The hot-air pipe Fenters this stove preferably at one side thereof, and passes under the grate, after which it is carried up through the second floor. The supply of air for this pipe is derived from the lower rootn or apartment, and in order to effectively heat the same the pipe is provided with an enlargement, f, below the grate of the stove;

or the pipe can be coiled flat under the grate before it is carried u i. The even G which is supported at the upper terminal of this pipe, consists of a sheet-metal case, prelerably approximating in shape to a bake-pan, and provided with a lid or cover, H. The hot-air pipe opens into the bottom of said oven, and in the lid isa short hot-air-escape pipe, I, so that the hot-air entering the oven will pass out through the escape-pipe into the rootn and warm the same.

K indicates an ordinary bake-pan, placed within the oven. In order to raise the bake pan above the bottom of the oven, so as to allow the hot air to enter and circulate under the pen, I provide a stand, L, consisting of a perforated or open-work plate provided with legs 1, which rest upon the bottotn of the oven.

not only allows the air to circulate under the bake-pan, but also by reason ofits perforations or openings allowsthe hot air to come itito direct contact with the bottom ofthe pan. The hot air circulates freely under, around, and over the pan, and then passes out through the escape-pipe.

Having thus described my invention, what -I claim is-- NANCY JANEGRAHAM.
